The authors have studied the magnetization behavior and the temperature dependence of AC-susceptibility at very low fields (5mOe to 50mOe) of glassy Fe{sub 91{minus}x}Zr{sub 7}B{sub 2}Ni{sub x} (X = 0, 5, 10, 15) alloy system. At zero Ni concentration the data suggests the existence of a spin-glass behavior at temperatures below 30 K. The addition of Ni drastically modifies the magnetic properties: the antiferromagnetic exchange coupling is reduced, the magnetic moment of Fe increases from 1.58 to 2.29 {micro}{sub B} and {Tc} increases from 230 to 478 K. Thus, substitution of Fe by Ni favors the increase of magnetic order in this system.
